Marion Cultural Alliance invites you to be part of something lasting.
Join us on May 30th at The Brick from 11am – 3pm for CELEBRATION Community Paint Day—a one-of-a-kind, hands-on experience where YOU help create a permanent public work of art.
This vibrant, large-scale horse sculpture, designed by Maggie Weakley, will come to life through the hands of our community—families, artists, visitors, and supporters—each adding their own brushstroke to a shared vision.
More than just a painting event, CELEBRATION reflects the heart of Marion County—its creativity, diversity, and deep connection to both the arts and equestrian culture. Once complete, the sculpture will remain on display as a lasting landmark and symbol of what we can build together.
Be Part of the Legacy – Each brushstroke becomes part of a permanent public sculpture at The Brick—your participation helps support and sustain the arts in our community.
How It Works:
Take part in our interactive paint-by-numbers experience, designed for all ages and skill levels. You’ll be guided to paint designated sections of the sculpture—no experience needed, just creativity and community spirit!
